23 Μαϊου 1934.
Η περιγραφή του περιστατικού ξεκινά ως εξής:
Barrow and Woman Are Slain by Police in Louisiana Trap
Bandit Pair Are Riddled With Bullets as Car Speeds at 85 Miles an Hour
Clyde Barrow, notorious Texas "bad man" and murderer, and his cigar-smoking, quick-shooting woman accomplice, Bonnie Parker, were ambushed and shot to death today in an encounter with Texas Rangers and Sheriff's deputies.
The 24-year-old desperado, who was accused of twelve murders in the last two years, and his companion whizzed along a little-traveled, paved road near Gibsland, about fifty miles east of here, at eighty-five miles an hour in a high-speed gray automobile, rushing into a carefully-laid death trap.
Before they could use any of the weapons in the small arsenal they had with them, the Rangers and others in the posse riddled them and their car with a deadly hail of bullets.
[Με τα χρόνια θα γίνονταν θρυλικοί, ως Μπόνι και Κλάιντ, τη μέρα του θανάτου τους όμως ήταν σχετικά γνωστοί, ως "Barrow and Woman"...
